Hey all,

I have a small collection of Lemun Russ battle tanks but only one demolisher turret. I'm trying to find any vendors that sell alternative "not demolisher" turrets (just the turret).
So far I have found Kromlechs turret bundle that looks quite nice but that is about it. There must be more out there...

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Vim

Did you glue the long battle cannon barrels to the turrets on your other Leman Russ tanks with battle cannons? If not, you can just disconnect the long battle cannon barrel and voila . . . a Demolisher turret.

Blood and Skulls Industry does some nice comparable turrets and weapons. Also have a look at Ratgard:

Most of my Russes are EBay salvage to guns are glued into place. The one I built myself is magnitized and that's the one demolisher that I have. I'm kind of interested in alternative turrets anyway.

Blood and Skulls looks qute nice.

Another nice turret is from secretweapons:

I got one of those, note that the weapons are really slim though (the high velocity canon has a caliber more in line with an autogun)

Also: you might have a look at Mortian:

You might like Victoria Miniatures tank turrets for the job. Very similar in appearance to Leeman Russ turrets and come with the four main gun options designed to be easily magnetizable and quick swap along with an optional pintle gun (heavy stubber equivalent) and the option to make the hatch open or closed. They're on the pricy side, but it's good stuff from everything I've seen. As a side note, when their descriptions say the item "will fit popular plastic" etc, that's their legal speak way of saying it will fit GW.

Lmao I like it, but it probably wouldn't actually work anymore after the Orks tinkered with it. And that's if you survive long enough without being executed for HERESY!

I think Ratgard is...dead? I tried to go to go to their store a while back, and there wasn't a way to actually place an order - their last post says that they aren't selling from ratgard.com anymore, and the link for their new store goes to a Chinese website which looks like it's asking for login/account creation.

On topic: I think all the good ones (Victoria, B&S, Mortian, Kromlech) have already been mentioned, but if you're feeling adventurous, you could try going to a bits store like Bits and Kits or something on eBay and trying to snipe a turret - failing that, you might be able to grab a hull-mounted Demolisher Cannon from something like a Baneblade or Vindicator kit from B&K and kludge a mount using another turret/greenstuff/plasticard.

Edit: I lied, I did have one to add - https://www.modelsandminis.com/. Decent stuff, though I can't mention it without mentioning that they've been pretty backed up since Covid started (~4 months for between purchase and shipping for both the orders I placed).

Bought one of these a while back and the quality was absolutely excellent. You can either get the turret on its own or any weapons to go with it. I went for the full bundle and couldn't be happier with the quality. Includes a turret ring for both the old and new hulls, and space for magnets.

The killkannon bit is actually just an orked-up version of the regular battlecannon
